Mochilla’s been working on Timeless: A Suite For Ma Dukes for the past year and have only released videos and instrumental pieces. Here’s the first vocal performance that they’re letting loose.

Dwele sang Angel that night without rehearsal. It is a classic. Miguel[ Atwood-Ferguson]‘s arrangement is super heavy and Bob Powers made it magic.

Video: Mister Cartoon, COPE & SEN 2 Bomb MetroPCS

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

World renowned tattoo artist Mister Cartoon is joined by legendary bombers COPE and SEN 2 to destroy the front windows of a couple of Metro PCS stores in the Bronx and Harlem.  It’s no secret that corporations have been using graf in marketing campaigns for years now, but I can honestly say that I never thought I’d see the day that they’d let writers demolish their shit like this. I love it.

Theo Martins links up with Wakey! Wakey!, a New York indie rock buzz band, on the redux of their single “Twenty Two” from their LP Almost Everything I Wish I’d Said the Last Time I Saw You on The Family Records. The song is about women who have intimate relationships with alcohol. This collaboration was the brainchild of both Gooch and ex-blogger-turnt-record-label-owner Wesley Verhoeve, who the band is signed to.
